World title changes


Whammer1

Hi guys, I'm guessing most of you don't remember me, seeing as once I left, you all realised the futility of life and made it all end, but I'm Whammer1. Something just annoyed me so much in the wrestling industr as of late that I had to blog angrily about it.

What do Batista, Bruno Sammartino and AJ Styles have in common? They've all been longest reignig title holders for the three main World titles in wrestling. Batista held the World Heavyweight title for 282 days, AJ held the TNA World title for 211 days and Bruno Sammartino held the WWE title for 2,803 days. Long reigns. Yet those reigns seem to have dissapeared nowadays. Alberto Del Rio lost the WWE title to John Cena after only a month as champion, Randy Orton and Christian have been exchanging title reigns for the last few months, with Mark Henry joining in now and don't get me started on the TNA title, which changes hands on average every two months, if that.

What has changed in pro wrestling to make title reigns shorter and shorter? Many would say that wrestlers just aren't over enough to hold the titles respectfully for as long a time as these, however, I have a different slant on this. I believe that wrestlers are too over. There's so many main eventers and upper midcarders, that there can be no long title reigns before another challenger comes along, gets a better reaction and forces the management to do what's best for business by giving him the title. And while this is a good sign for the future, talent-wise, it provides no continuity championship-wise, forcing the fans to think and re-think angles and storylines to the point where they're no longer enjoyable. And while this fast-paced action provides more thrills in the short-term, in the long-run, the storylines suffer as the long rivalries have been destroyed.

The Randy Orton/Christian fued at least provided a good long rivalry, but with the championship changing hands every month, the storyling got a tad bit pedictable and was ruined because of it. So promotions, heed my words and bring back reigns like the ones I've described, or continue to suffer the same problems that have amounted from these constant title changes.

This has been Whammer1.

You might be onto something as there are a lot of title options. My guesses:

For TNA I feel like the frequent world title swaps are done mostly to placate the veteran talent. They have to promise Sting something good every year when they beg him to come back and Angle just wrapped up contract talks recently.

For WWE RAW I think the plan was to give Del Rio a long reign but they panicked at the low ratings. Enter Cena, the reliable stand-by.

For WWE SD I'd say Orton is piling up title reigns because he's got the stroke to make it happen and b/c he may or may not be a bit of a jerk.
